OOooooh, that’s a good one!

‘At least it’s not kill and frisk’.

I know that’s not really what you meant, that fewer guns out there means fewer deaths, but it could be taken out of context. Sounds bad either way.

I know, but I haven’t got a better way to say it. The challenge of preventing crime in neighborhoods where most residents cannot cooperate with the police for fear of gang retaliation is a very difficult one. Given the stakes, I find it almost impossible to spurn a viable tactic, even if its at times galling.

To pivot off of what William was saying:

The peace of the gun is still preferable to the anarchy of the gun.
